October Prime Day is here, and we're seeing great deals on tech devices — but we also wanted to point out a few choice Lego deals we've had our eye on as well. You could use this as an opportunity to kickstart the holiday shopping season — even if you haven't even thought about the holidays yet, you should give the latest Prime Day Lego deals a look. A number of Lego sets from the Super Mario, Star Wars and Harry Potter collections are on sale right now for up to 41 percent off. There are even steeper savings on general Lego sets as well. (Also, no one will judge you if you pick up a set or two for yourself.) Here are the best Amazon Prime Day Lego deals we could find. Prime Day deals on Star Wars Lego sets On the Star Wars side of things, this Spider Tank set is 36 percent off and down to only $32, which is the lowest it's ever been. It includes 526 pieces that replicate the spider tank from season three of The Mandalorian, plus three minifigures: Din Djarin, Bo-Katan Kryze and Grogu. Once built, the spider tank has grabbing claws, flexible legs and a little cockpit in which one of the figures can sit.

The Star Wars Lego Advent calendar (complete with Luke and Leia in holiday sweaters) is down to $36, after a 20 percent discount, and we don't expect this one to last long. Prime Day deals...
